01

How it works

The IGL sets default plans, adjusts based on information and decides when to group or save. CS2 does not provide a separate IGL character.

02

Practical strategy

Use concise plans and one clear mid-round call rather than narrating every possible outcome.

03

Mistakes to avoid

Over-calling when teammates need to hear footsteps can cause more harm than silence.
